Is learning to drive really so hot lately?
The reporter went to the driving school for on-site visits.
Hangzhou Driving School has recently reached a small peak
The number of people learning to drive has tripled compared to usual
The reporter arrived at a motor vehicle driving training school in Hangzhou.
Mr. Wang, the person in charge of the driving school, said that the number of applicants for learning to drive has surged recently, entering a small peak.
Many people start consulting about learning how to drive in March or April, and some college students even sign up before the college entrance examination. After completing the physical examination and subject one theory exam, they can directly enter practical training after the college entrance examination is over.
"Currently, the majority of students applying to learn how to drive are prospective college students and college students. Typically, there are about 60-70 students applying to learn how to drive in a month. As of June, there have been over 60 students, and the number of applicants for the entire month is expected to be twice as high as usual. The following months, July and August, are expected to continue to be hot, and the number of applicants is expected to be on par with June."
Another staff member from an established driving school stated that summer vacation is the peak period for learning to drive, and this year it has been advanced. More than 30 parents call to inquire about learning how to drive before the college entrance examination is over!

Normally, there are only over 20 students who register to learn how to drive in a month, but on the first day after the college entrance examination, there are 6 or 7 students who register, all of whom are prospective college students. Based on the current situation, it is estimated that the number of people learning to drive in June this year may exceed 70, which is more than three times the usual number of people learning to drive, and is likely to exceed the same period last year!
At the moment of the reporter's interview, there was a student named Xiao Chen who had just finished the college entrance examination and had just registered for a driving school.
Xiao Chen told reporters, "I'm afraid I won't have much time to learn how to drive when I'm in college. I can make good use of my free time during the summer vacation. Many of my classmates around me, like me, come to learn how to drive this summer. My parents also support me in learning how to drive now because they enjoy self driving trips. Once I finish learning how to drive and get my driver's license, I can help them drive together."
The reporter learned that there has been a surge in the number of people learning to drive recently. Driving schools open for practice every morning at 6 o'clock and can last until 10 o'clock at night at the latest. However, considering the hot weather in summer, we usually take a temporary break from noon to 3pm.
The vehicle management office also stated that more and more people are registering to learn driving licenses. This month, the main focus is on theoretical exams. By the end of June to early July, there will be a peak in road exams.
The trend of learning to drive has changed
Learning motorcycles ushers in a new wave of enthusiasm
In addition to the high number of applicants, the trend of learning to drive has also changed.
Master Wang said that in the past, there were more people learning manual transmission and fewer people learning automatic transmission. In the past two years, everyone's choices have completely changed. This year, 60% -70% of the prospective college students who signed up are learning automatic transmission.

In addition, in the past two years, there have been more and more people learning motorcycles, even more popular than those learning cars.
The reporter learned that since the beginning of this year, more than 100 people from driving schools have signed up to learn motorcycles every month. In June, there was a peak in registration, and as half of the month passed, the number of applicants had already exceeded 120.
Motorcycle learning suddenly became popular, and Master Wang analyzed to reporters that there are mainly three reasons. One is the change in career situation, where many people make a living by taking out food and have a demand for learning motorcycles; Secondly, there are more and more motorcycle enthusiasts, and many young people make plans to ride motorcycles together; Thirdly, there is a lot of commuting pressure now, and driving to work is very congested. Many people choose to switch to motorcycles for commuting.
